By the way, I think this is really a problem with QLab, not with you.

I tend to think of option-clicking on knobs to get to 0db or -INF,  
which works the same way whether the fade is in relative or absolute  
mode.  But clearly it doesn't work the same way when you're doing a  
click-and-drag operation; you'd have to notice that the limits on the  
knobs are different in relative mode.

This wouldn't be such a big deal if there weren't such potential  
consequences for a +120 db fadeup.

So I think a change is in order here.  Not sure what it will look like  
yet, but something needs to be adjusted.
